7B-32 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3 A / T) (VEHICLE WITH WU-TWC)
STALL TEST
This test is to check overall performance of automatic transmission
and engine by measuring stall speed at D and R ranges.
Be sure to perform this test only when transmission fluid is at normal
operating temperature (70–80C / 158–176F) and its level is be-
tween FULL HOT and LOW HOT. (Refer to “Fluid level” in this sec-
tion.)
CAUTION:
Do not run engine at stall more than 5 seconds continuous-
ly, for oil temperature may rise excessively high.
1) Install tachometer.
2) Apply parking brake and block vehicle wheels.
3) Start engine with selector lever shifted to P range.
4) Depress brake pedal.
5) Shift selector lever to D range and depress accelerator pedal ful-
ly while watching tachometer. Read engine rpm quickly when it
has become constant (stall speed).
6) Release accelerator pedal immediately after stall speed is
checked.
7) In the same way, check stall speed at R range.
8) Stall speed should be within following specification.
Stall speed: 2,500 – 2,900 r / min
(For both G10 and G13 engine models)
9) Possible causes for out-of-specification stall speed are as fol-
lows. Check each part which is suspected to be the cause.

LINE PRESSURE TEST
This test is to check oil pressure system for operation by measuring
oil pressure in oil pressure line. Make sure to perform this test only
when transmission fluid is at normal operating temperature.
NOTE:
Make sure that transmission fluid level is between FULL HOT
and LOW HOT marks on oil level gauge at normal operating
temperature which corresponds to 70–80C (155–176F) of
fluid. (Refer to “Fluid level” in this section.)
Check that transmission is free from fluid leakage.
1) With engine at stop, remove plug and connect oil pressure
gauge to plug hole.
Special Tool
(A): 09925-37811-001
2) Install tachometer.
3) Apply parking brake and block vehicle wheels.
4) With selector lever shifted to P range, start engine.
5) Depress brake pedal fully.
6) Shift selector lever to D range and check oil pressure with engine
running at idling speed and at stall speed respectively.
7) Repeat the same check as in step 6) with selector lever shifted
to R range.
CAUTION:
Do not run engine at stall more than 5 seconds continu-
ously, for oil temperature may rise excessively high.
8) If line pressure is within respective specification in table below,
oil pressure system is in good condition.
